Rezensionen
"This is a long overdue and most welcome injection of serious theoretical perspectives into the academic discussion of CSDP, a policy area which fits uneasily into mainstream theories of either international relations or European integration. This rising generation of scholars offers a variety of penetrating insights from neo-realism to post-structuralism, with a heavy emphasis on constructivism. The book breaks significant new theoretical ground and will prove invaluable to all serious scholars of European security and defence."

- Jolyon Howorth, Visiting Professor of Political Science at Yale, USA and Jean Monnet Professor of European Politics ad personam and Emeritus Professor of European Studies at the University of Bath, UK

'For many years, studies of EU security policies represented the 'poor neighbours' of EU studies, generally under-theorised, often descriptive and prescriptive. This book marks an important step on the path towards mainstreaming scholarly investigation of these policies. It provides a comprehensive overview of the way several theories can enhance our understanding of the Union's role in international security. Hence it has much to offer not only those interested in security related issues, but also students of European integration more broadly.'

- Anand Menon, Professor of West European Politics, University of Birmingham, UK

'A quantum leap in theorising the EU's Common Security and Defence Policy. The editors have brought together some of the finest scholarship on European security. In its pluralist attitude towards the analysis of CSDP, this book establishes the parameters within which the academic debate on this issue will take place for the foreseeable future.'

- Thomas Diez, Professor of Political Science and International Relations, University of Tübingen, Germany
